Creating a mouthwatering Farro Caprese Salad is simple with these step-by-step instructions:

1. Cook the Farro: Rinse the farro in cold water. In a medium pot, combine farro and water (or vegetable broth) and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender.
2. Drain and Cool: Once cooked, drain the farro and let it cool for a few minutes.
3. Prepare the Vegetables: While the farro is cooling, halve the cherry tomatoes and set them aside in a large salad bowl.
4. Add Cheese and Basil: Add the mozzarella balls and chopped basil to the bowl with the tomatoes.
5. Mix Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper until well combined.
6. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked farro to the salad bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the mixture, tossing everything together until well coated.
7. Season to Taste: Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding red pepper flakes for extra flavor if desired.
8. Serve: You can serve the salad immediately or let it chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to meld the flavors.
